Black Powder 2nd edition is a beautiful thing, but the rules are hardly changed at all - the only really usefull part of it is a bunch of new scenarios. We tried out the ACW Kerston scenario. There being nothing in the book to inspire us to change our opinion of Black Powder we used our Hail Mr Lincoln modification of Hail Caesar.
Union: Jim & Chris.
CSA: Mark & Mike.
The battle starts with most of the Union force on the table & CSA's advance guard cavalry.
Jackson arrives and immediately attacked Kimball's brigade on Pritchard's Hill, immediately breaking the RH unit before the Union cavalry could redeploy on their flank.
The Union cavalry dismounted & stabilised the situation on the hill. Sullivan has been called from the Union left, but is moving at glacial pace. Burk's Reb brigade is advancing on the Union right.
The cavalry managed to hold the line & Tyler has shown up on the Union right to distract Burk.
Tyler's counterattack against the Reb's left bounced off & Jackson has renewed his attack on the hill.
Both Kimball's brigade & the Union cavalry on the hill have broken under the renewed Reb assault. Tyler's brigade is being shot to pieces by the Rebs on the Union right. The Union conceded defeat.
